French-German cellist Nicolas Altstaedt, known to Australian and international audiences as one of the finest instrumentalists performing today, presents an intimate one-off Adelaide Festival performance as part of Daylight Express. Hailed as having “technique to burn, near perfect intonation, superb control of extreme registers and harmonics”, Altstaedt will perform the revered solo cello Suite No. 1 in G major and No. 5 in C minor of JS Bach, and Dutilleux's Trois Strophes sur le nom de Sacher on his 1749 Guadagnini cello.
